The iPhone 17 Air (even the name is a rumor) is reportedly arriving this fall. As that Air suffix suggests, it could be Apples thinnest iPhone ever. However, while thin is all good, an arguably more intriguing change didnt quite make it through the design process. In the latest Power On newsletter (we love a newsletter), Bloombergs Mark Gurman said Apple had planned to ditch the USB-C port, making Apples first completely port-free iPhone. The notion was ditched in the face of more EU regulator issues, but it could appear in subsequent iPhones. Dont worry, though, Apple has plenty of incoming phones to distract you. Were expecting Apple to release another four iPhones this year, with the one currently nicknamed the iPhone 17 Air roughly 2 millimeters thinner than the rest. It could replace the Plus iPhone, with the family running from an entry-level iPhone 17 through to two higher-end Pro models. The new iPhone Air would nestle somewhere in the middle, for around $900. Rumors about the iPhone Airs specs are still coalescing and shifting, but many reports suggest a single-camera system, the Dynamic Island and the Camera Control button. Alas, no iPhone mini. Thinner, not smaller.

The Pixel 9a has leaked so hard that YouTubers are reviewing it We dont have our own review models yet. The Mobile Central At least two YouTubers have reviewed Googles next entry-level Pixel phone. Both The Mobile Central and Sahil Karoul have Googles new phone, confirming a lot of the stuff we knew about the Pixel 9a already. Seriously, there are few surprises and at this point, it looks like leaking everything to do with its phones is part of Googles PR strategy. Prove me wrong! After all that thin iPhone chat, the Pixel 9a doesnt have Googles trademark camera bump. Instead, the cameras are almost flush with the plastic back of the phone. The Pixel 9a also has a Google-made Tensor G4 chip, with a 48-megapixel wide and 13-megapixel ultrawide for photos and video. Continue reading.

One UI 7 comes with a number of Galaxy AI features, including AI Select that lets users interact with parts of their screen. It will allow them to copy text by drawing a circle on an element on the screen or to easily create a GIF of a video they're watching. There's Writing Assist that can automatically summarize or format text the user highlights and Drawing Assist the creates illustrations based on text prompts, rough sketches or images.

Heineken has launched a worldwide search for someone named McLoughlin to take the reins of a family pub on Ireland's remote Achill Island. Current owner Josie McLoughlin, the fourth generation to run the establishment, faces a common dilemma in rural Ireland no family successor. The campaign transforms this private business challenge into a global treasure hunt, with billboards appearing in cities with large Irish diaspora populations, from New York to Sydney.The initiative taps into powerful currents of cultural identity and belonging at a time when many professionals are reconsidering their career paths. As automation and AI reshape white-collar industries, the romanticism of owning a community cornerstone in a picturesque setting offers an alluring alternative. Beyond merely preserving a business, Heineken's "For the Love of Pubs" campaign recognizes how these establishments serve their communities.At its core, the campaign acknowledges the critical role physical gathering spaces play in combating social isolation. With McLoughlin's Bar serving as both a social hub and cultural landmark for generations, Heineken positions itself as a defender of increasingly endangered third places. By offering the selected McLoughlin a comprehensive succession package, including mentorship and investment guidance, the brand demonstrates an understanding that preserving such spaces requires more than nostalgia it demands practical support for their long-term viability.
